It rained the whole night. There was a lot of water on the road. It was the day for the market and Raju, a farmer, was riding his cart (运货马车) along the country road. He had to reach the market early so that he could sell his vegetables. However, it was very difficult for the Horses to walk through the deep mud(泥沼).
On his journey suddenly one horse cart sank into the mire(泥沼). The harder the horses pulled, the deeper the wheel sank. Raju climbed down from his seat and stood beside his cart. He searched all around but could not find anyone to help him. He didn’t make any effort to try to lift the wheel up by himself.

Why has this happened to me Oh, God, come down to help me.”
After a long wait, God finally appeared in front of Raju.

Do you like listening to music Do you often turn up the music when you’re using earphones If so, your hearing may have been damaged.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is worried that about 1.1 billion children and young people are damaging their hearing by listening to loud music. Nearly half the young people in developed countries may lose their hearing because of the “unsafe use” of music players, including smartphones. Loud music in nightclubs, at parties and sports also makes it worse. The WHO advises young people to listen to music for just one hour a day. Dr. Etienne Krug told BBC, “What we’re trying to do is to draw people’s attention to a problem that is not talked about enough.” He said it was easy to solve this problem.
Dr. Krug said keeping the music down and limiting the listening time to less than one hour a day would save a lot of people’s hearing. However, he also said, “Even an hour can be too much if the music is too loud.” Ralph Holme, a researcher, explained how loud noise could damage ears. He said, “Loud sounds damage your hearing by killing off thousands of little hair cells (细胞) in the inner ear. The cells can tell different sounds through vibration (振动). But they are very fragile----they get damaged easily and even die if they vibrate too much because of loud sounds for too long.” He warned, “The bigger problem is that they don’t grow back and the ear can no longer hear sounds.”
No one wants to lose their hearing! Therefore, next time when you listen to music, make sure it’s not too loud and only listen for less than an hour. You can enjoy your music much better in this way.
( )1.How are the children and young people damaging their hearing
A. By using smartphones. B. By going to the party.
C. By listening to loud music. D. By talking with friends.
( )2.How long does the WHO advise young people to listen to music a day
A. For three hours. B. For just one hour.
C. For half of the day. D. For more than one hour.
( )3.According to Dr. Etienne Krug, what they are trying to do is ____.
A. to draw people’s attention to the hearing problem
B. to tell people it’s important to keep healthy
C. to warn young people not to stay up too late
D. to ask people to protect the environment
( )4.What does the underlined word “fragile” probably mean
A. 聪明的 B.易损的 C.强壮的 D.活跃的
( )5.From the passage we can learn that ____.
A. keeping the music down would save young people’s hearing
B. the damaged cells can grow back
C. young people lose their hearing because of going to the nightclubs
D. the problem of young people’s hearing damage is talked about enough

A 13-year-old American has made a cheap machine that can help blind people read.
The blind can read by using Braille ----a system of small bumps (凸块) that the blind touch to read the letters. The machine that makes these small bumps usually costs at least $2,000. It is called Braille writer. The American schoolboy, Shubham Banerjee, made a new Braille writer from a Lego tool that lets people create robots. Banerjee has called his new machine the Braigo一a combination (组合）of the words Braille and Lego. It costs just $350. It works by changing electronic text into Braille and then printing it using a computer or mobile machine.
Banerjee designed (设计）his Braigo last year for a school science exhibition. Since then, he has caught the interest of Silicon Valley in the USA. The big technology company Intel spent money on Banerjee’s machine last November, but they did not say how much money they put in. Banerjee also got $35,000 from his father to help him start the project. His father works as a computer engineer (工程师)at Intel. He spoke about why he gave so much money to his son, saying, “We as parents started to be interested more, thinking that he’s on to something and this invention has to continue.” Banerjee told the AP News, “My dream would probably be having most of the blind people use my Braigo.”

四、任务型阅读(共1题,共10分)
Dragons can be friendly or fierce (凶狠的). They can bring good luck or cause death, but one thing is sure — people talk about them almost everywhere in the world. For a creature that doesn’t actually exist, that’s quite something.
In Chinese culture, dragons are generous and wise, although they can be ①unpredictable. The dragon was closely connected to the royal family: the emperor's robes (长抱）have a symbol of a gold dragon with five claws. ②Other members of the royal family were allowed to wear dragon symbols, too, but with fewer claws and of a different colour. According to the popular belief, if you were born in the year of the dragon, you are intelligent, brave, and a natural leader.
But in the West, dragons had a different reputation (名声). The very first text in English, the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf，tells the story of a Scandinavian hero, Beowulf, who fights and kills a dangerous dragon but is himself killed in the fight. However, across the border in Wales, the red dragon which appears on the Welsh flag is a positive symbol, indicating strength and a sense of national identity.
③Why does the dragon have a different character in different parts of the world Some experts believe it is due to the animals that the myths grew out of. In the West, the idea of the dragon probably came from the snake—an animal which people hated and ④ ____ ____of (害怕).
But in China, the idea of the dragon may have cornel from the alligator—a shy animal which lives in rivers, but which is usually only seen when there is plenty of water—a good sign for agriculture(农业). So the Chinese dragon is a bringer of ⑤good fortune.
(1) (A)请写出文中画线部分①unpredictable的汉语意思：________.
(B)请从文中找出与画线部分⑤good fortune意思相近的短语：________.
(2) 将文中画线部分②改成主动语态:They________.
(3) 将文中画线句子③翻译成汉语: ________.
(4) 根据文中④处的汉语提示，用英语将句子补充完整，每空一词。
In the West, the idea of the dragon probably came from the snake—an animal which people hated and ________ ________of(害怕）.
(5) What are the differences between Chinese dragons and western dragons (从文中找出相关描述的英语单词或短语, 每空至少填一个。）
Chinese dragons: ________ Western dragons: ________.
